What are you brining your turkey in? I just think it's best that you wet brine it for a few days, pull it out, and then let it dry out for another day or so prior to frying. If you try to pull that sucker right out of the wet brine and drop it into the oil of course you're going to get a whole...

Frying turkey isn't that big of a deal as long as you follow a few simple rules. Always fry outside Determine the displacement of the oil versus the turkey you've got. And monitor your temps Apparently it's pretty difficult for a lot of folks though. The displacement of the oil is the...

Man make certain to take pictures of the goose (and the duck). I'm very curious to know how you end up doing it and what does it taste like in comparison to duck. I love cooking duck and I've got one sitting in the freezer, but I think I'm going to save it for Christmas and just fry a turkey...

I don't know if I do a wet marinade and then freeze it, but you can definitely dry brine stuff and vacuum pack it. I just think all of the extra liquid moisture is going to create larger ice crystals that it's going to damage the meat. I think Alton Brown covered that whole topic on an old...

Mealy was just the first word that came to mind to describe that weird texture, but over firm / pickled / hammy works too. I think we're talking about the same thing. It can get dry not from a lack of moisture but from just a textural standpoint. There really seems to be windows for any cut...

If I did stakes it was only for hour and a half , maybe two at the most. Even doing something like a tri-tip I think I only ever ran 12. I just knew myself and my wife both can tell the difference after the sous-vide. The meat just ends up taking on a different texture and it seems like a...

Pulled some steaks out of the freezer for an easy weekend meal prior to Thanksgiving. Probably turn leftovers in the tacos or Philly cheesesteaks. Just been reverse searing with the slow and sear and monitoring temps, resting, and then flash searing. I've been very happy with the results...

Thanks for the feedback, gents. I think I'm just going to try to finish up Wrath of the Righteous, and tie flies / fish instead. Hopefully they work out the BS, and I can hit it up for the first time in a few months.

I haven't picked up the game yet just because been busy with work. Was thinking about picking it up and playing it during the holidays. Been trying to keep up with the thread just to get a gauge of what's going on with the game and to maybe learn some stuff prior to purchasing. I don't know...

This, or at least get the propane style burner you can throw in your driveway or backyard, and use a relatively large stainless steel vessel for a proper fish fry. Never have to get your house smelling funky, and it'll pull double-duty if you actually want to blacken anything Prudhomme style.

I can't stand stupid Tik Tok style short videos like that. Now every content creator is doing YouTube shorts because all the kids have an attention span akin to a goldfish. If you really want to share some knowledge or teach people something, show a little bit more effort, be patient, and take...

Such a great movie. I remember seeing it in the theater with my dad. Still holds up to this day, and the sand monster scared the hell out of me as a kid.

I remember somebody posting a data mine of some of the new stuff they're supposed to be releasing soon. Unfortunately the link didn't work. I was just wondering what the three new weapons are supposed to be? I know one is the void gauntlet but I don't know what the other two are.

Yeah, all I was thinking while watching the trailer was this is a shitty version of Posse. Didn't Van Peebles have so many golden bullets meant to kill a specific person or something like that? It's been a long time since I've seen it, but I at least remember it being an enjoyable movie.

That's a great movie, but that was also a monkey-rat monster that was created by rats from colonial ships of tyranny raping the indigenous monkeys of peace. I was specifically calling out the plexiglass tube for the monkey runs out of its habitat and jumping on the guy's face, but think it's a...

The mini-series we're great for their time and low budget. I always thought they were more stage plays not a full blown movie. If you can get past that they're still wonderful to watch. I actually re-watched the first mini-series over the course of a couple of evenings this past week, and...

Apparently there's an infinite experience bug with Town boards: Sorry if it's a repost.

Simon Vance is always amazing. He does a really good version of Dracula. I've never been disappointed with any audiobook that he's narrated.

Holy fuck, Primal Rage was the inspiration for 28 Days Later. How did they not see that comparison? The whole monkey infecting the guy is the exact same scene. Same cage setup where it runs out and jumped on his face. Maybe they were just caught up with all the pop-culture references to 80s...

Man I've been binge watching that channel lately. It's fantastic for all things cured. We just don't have the space for most of the equipment, otherwise I'd be doing a monthly charcuterie project.

I think it's normal. He bounces during the gargoyle attack, but it's just part of the story I think. There might be something you can do to prevent that but he wasn't there for my attack on Drezen during my playthrough.

I haven't picked up the game yet but is it really this bad? I've just been reading the thread on the forums to try to get a gauge of how things are going. This guy normally has pretty decent opinions and reviews about games. He's definitely doom and gloom on the current state.

I'm just running traditional Monk. Party members are typically Lann the murder machine, black paladin lady, Nineo, thief trickster guy, and succubus lady. I've been to Auto leveling them most of the time and you can really tell just how bad the game is with the choices it wants to make. I...

I'd imagine at this point most folks have probably gotten pretty close or already finished their first playthrough. What's the overall consensus of what's the most fun mythic path, or the ones to avoid? I'm still not done with act 3 and I've been going Angel for now but will probably try to...

I cleared out Blackwater last night. What a pain in the ass that was. It was a little jarring with the abrupt change in tone, but whatever. The giant cyborg demons were next to impossible to hit. I really had to make certain I was completely buffed with every trick in the book prior to...

That's always been my favorite video that someone's made of his music. I thought it got blasted off of YouTube because of copyright infringements a long time ago and then some other wonderful individual reposted it I don't even know if it was the same guy, but my hat goes off to them. Just...

Such a shame when Brockie died. I remember when he did a solo album, the title of it was just perfect.

Maybe not really metal but it was up there back in the late 90s specifically if you grew up in Texas. Pretty great song and pretty great band...

Fuck it some of my favorite stuff. .... Nice mix of that late 80s and of the 90s.... Except for the Winter-sun video which is early 2000s.

I haven't posted anything in this thread in a long God damn time. But I went down the rabbit hole this evening listening to some metal and I figured I would at least share what I was enjoying.... Some good old and Ensiferum.... No clue if it's been posted before, but they've always been one...

Was going to do steak night, but came home with tomahawk pork chops instead. Did a 8-hour garlic and herb wet brine, and reverse seared them to an internal of 145. Was pretty pleased with the results.

I honestly think that's all of them. Don't believe there's anything else. I remember seeing star man as a kid back in the '80s and didn't enjoy it because it is a pretty slow movie, but as I got older it's a great film. I don't think there's a best of any of those movies. Any comparison...

Yeah, but I still enjoy watching them talk about those movies. It's been awhile since I've seen most of them and it's kind of nice to remember what I do and don't like about certain films out of Carpenters portfolio. I think I also just like the Review format more than most of their other...
